Loss Prevention
In manufacturing facilities, large amounts of valuable raw materials and goods are continuously being transported through buildings. This can be a big temptation for thieves and be difficult for managers to keep up with in a plant that could cover hundreds of thousands of square feet spanning over numerous buildings and shipping areas. Thus, HDTV-quality video cameras can provide detailed images in real-time to easily monitor these areas and provide easy recognition of a person. Network video systems can send automatic alerts when someone enters a specific area to keep out intruders. Night-vision cameras can also secure dimly-lit or completely dark areas of an industrial area.
Security cameras that are prominently displayed can also be a theft deterrent for employees and help maintain a high level of work accountability for employees.
Safety and Security
Video surveillance can help protect employees from intruders and thieves and these security systems are becoming ever more vital in the wake of increasing terrorist threats. The scalability of IP surveillance systems and their remote monitoring abilities makes it easier for security personnel to actively patrol and protect the facility.
In automated facilities where high-powered machinery is used, video surveillance is valuable in protecting employees in what could be very dangerous areas. This was one of the main goals for the KIA MOTORS production plant in Slovakia. They used Axis network cameras to help monitor equipment in order to discover problems before they caused instabilities on the production line and hurt employees.
Increased Productivity
But IP video surveillance systems not only provide vital security solutions, but can also be used to help streamline operations in the industrial and
“With pan/tilt capabilities and 35x optical zoom, the Axis network cameras gave inspectors vantage points to remotely examine containers in a rail yard that stretches the length of more than six football fields,” Axis noted. “Inspectors reviewing the video images decide whether to send the container on its way, flag it for repair, or reload its contents to another container. The images also serve as proof that any damage occurred before or after the Norfolk terminal handled the container.”
These network cameras thus boost productivity by making the inspection process much faster, as well as creating as safer working environments for inspectors and protecting them from the elements. These IP camera systems are also easily scalable so that your security system can grow with the business.
Video surveillance systems can thus generate a significant return on investment by not only giving manufacturers a higher level of security but also increasing productivity and business efficiency.
